Our debate at work today...

Better sandwich: Wendy's Spicy Chicken vs. Chik Fill-A Spicy Chicken?

I love Chik Fill A but Wendy's Spicy Chicken is ahh-mazing...

never tried ChicFila spicy. You can only get their std sandwich with the 2 4th Q FT misses ticket.
And I really really try to avoid paying actual money to eat fast food.

ChicFila reg is pretty good with bring your own Thai peanut sauce on it.

It's kind of a bummer that the best Wizards team in recent memory still isn't a 50-win team.

Higga, you should abandon the conjecture and conduct some SCIENCE. Taste tests are probative.

LOLing at your location: "real city like Ocean City"?

Ocean City is a turd. The only reason to go there is because it's a turd and you want to do embarrassing drunken things

:lol: I loved OC as a teen/youngish adult, but as you get older you kinda outgrow it. Its still not bad to spend a weekend in the summer though.

Rocking the red at the Caps game tonight. Hope we play with better effort than Game 1. I'm not a huge Hockey fan, but my girl is and playoff hockey games are pretty fun to go to. Last one I went to was two years ago and we beat the Rangers in OT.

If OKC fires Brooks and hires Ollie, will Ollie hire EJ as an asst coach?

EJ is not only the coach of Rutgers, he's also about to become a graduate of Rutgers.

http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports. ... g/related/

When Rutgers head coach Eddie Jordan took the job at his alma mater two years ago, he did so without having completed his bachelor’s degree from the university. Jordan, who majored in the now defunct physical education program at Rutgers, was 11 credits short of graduating when he left the school to go play in the NBA in 1977.

After taking the Rutgers job it was determined that Jordan had even more credits to complete in order to get his degree. So the head coach went to work as a student, while also running the men’s basketball program. In a fun read from Jerry Carino of the Ashbury Park Press, Jordan goes through the rigors of being a “student-coach” as he’s taken two summer classes and one class per regular semester during his tenure as Rutgers head coach.

Barring any unforseen setbacks, Jordan is expected to graduate in May and will walk with the rest of the student population at graduation. Jordan’s degree will be in Labor Studies and Employment Relations and he’s often been seen at study hall, with his players, working on papers or projects.


How cool is that?

I think EJ is a great mentor to young men. He's where he belongs IMO.
Bye bye Beal.

NBA TV has Nate Robinson working the commentary desk tonight. Nate Robinson should be nowhere within a mile of a microphone.

diderotn would make a better analyst than Nate Robinson.

I'm still bummed that I signed up for my account here at RealGm right after the diderotn era.

Oh well, at least I got to see SD20 and AceDegnerate (Fokus).

DC Sports Trifecta last night. Pretty awesome. Gotta enjoy it because we don't get nights like last night much here in this city.

Last time I remember him posting, he was helping me out with a health issue - with some advice that turned out to be very useful. He's so talented in so many areas that there's probably so many things tugging for his attention - so he hasn't had time to post here. Thankfully, I don't have that burden of being talented.

Speaking of talent, Javale McGee makes more per year than Tim Duncan. How messed up is that?
